Apistogramma Cacatuoides

Orange Apistogramma cacatuoides, also known as the Orange Flash Cockatoo Dwarf Cichlid, is a popular, brightly colored freshwater aquarium fish from South America, featuring vibrant orange on its dorsal, tail, and anal fins. Males are larger and more colorful than females, which have a duller base color but can become vibrant when breeding. The fish require a carnivorous diet and a planted aquarium with hiding spots and soft, slightly acidic water, and can become territorial when spawning.
